TIPS FOR EXTENDING THE LIFE OF YOUR PRESSURE
WASHER
NEVER operate the unit without water.
Your pressure washer is not meant to pump hot
water. NEVER connect your pressure washer to a
hot water supply as it will significantly reduce
the life of the pump.
Running the unit for more than two minutes
without spraying water causes heat to build up
in the pump. Running the unit without spraying
water can damage pump components.
Release the trigger prior to switching the lance
between high and low pressure. Failure to do so
may reduce the life of the o-rings in the lance.
Never store the pressure washer
with gasoline in the tank inside
